Is This Christmas?

The Wombats

Kids/unsigned

WE SAY

The Wombats are a Liverpool three piece who are grabbing attention in all the right places. This year saw them play to a great reaction at ITC, receive airplay on Radio 1 and gain support from the NME. Having already built a sizeable fan base in Liverpool, they are ready to cast the net wider next year. The Kids label, who released their first two singles have put out The Best Kids Christmas Album In The World Ever Ever Ever!!!. Physicals are limited to 500 CDs available from their website. A bargain at £6 and better still, all profits will be donated to the NSPCC. The Wombats have made a Christmas song that sums up their punchy, indie-pop appeal. It's also the best Christmas song we've heard in ages. JF London Gig: 16 Dec Nambucca Xmas Party, N7
